It is easy to prioritize daily business matters over developing a business succession plan; however, owners who fail to establish an exit strategy put their entity’s long-term viability at risk. Whether your tentative plan involves transferring or selling your stake to family members, partners or outside investors, it is important to understand the challenges and opportunities associated with each option.

You can rely on our lawyers to consider all options when advising you on tax matters, compensation packages and asset sales or transfers.
